Playing interactive swf files in instructor led class

We are putting together an instructor led online course. The problem we keep running into, is that when we import a .swf file when we do share document, the files comes up for all to see, but anybody (teachers, stuidents, facilitator) can click on any of the buttons and everyone only sees what is on their screen as opposed to what the instructor is trying to show. If we switch to share instructors screen and select application, it works - everyone sees what the instructor sees and only the instructor can hit different buttons - which is what we want - however the quality of the .swf file gets distorted grainy and plays really slow. Does anybody have any solutions - is there a capability that I missed?

If you are using custom created SWF files make sure that you are building it to the guidelines given for the Collaboration SDK found here, http://www.adobe.com/devnet/adobeconnect.html.
You will be able to sync the file across all attendees in the room by doing the steps provided in that documentation. Otherwise, if you are using Captivate or Presenter, it should automatically sync.

Creating interactive swf files that contain flash files that don't play once loaded on server

I am creating an interactive swf file that contains a flash movie f4v file and when I preview the page in ID it plays, but once I export the InDesign file to swf, insert that on a html page using Dreamweaver (so I can send a link and not a file out) the movie doesn't play, just the first frame of the clip. I have uploaded the f4v file to our server and linked in the original ID file and it still doesn't play. Any suggestions or similar issues?

I have left the page up for quite a while to see if it is just taking longer to load that clip and that doesn't seem to be it. I am just stumped and honestly not knowledgable on how websites and servers work - just know how to get my documents up so I can send links.

Interactive SWF files on Smartboards.

Can Flash interactive SWF files be used on Smartboards with their interactivity intact?

The installation requirements asking for FP11.1 or greater is encouraging but how much interactivity do you expect? While it serves as a basic mouse input, the AS3 MultiTouch class will give you information on what it detects support for.
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/flash/ui/Multitouch.htm l
The inputMode property will tell you what mode it's supporting (multitouch, gestures or basic mouse), maxTouchPoints tells you how many points Flash will support via the driver and the supportedGestures vector will let you know what built-in gesture detection (rotate, scale, touch, etc) will be supported.
Contacting SmartTech would be the fastest way to get your answer but there's a good chance you at least have basic touch input with gestures, as long as you're on Win7 or higher (Note: they do say Win8 is not fully supported yet).

Flash player can't play a .swf file alone

I've have a weird issue regarding flash.
I used Flash CS5 to create an interactive presentation. Everything works perfectly.
My problem is, for some unknown reason, everytime I try to open a stand alone .swf using flash player, the player always opens my interactive presentation instead and tries to load the .swf INTO it. Using the finder's info window, when I do select a .swf, I get the information all my .swf have been changed to "interactive presentation files", and the default application assigned to open these files is my own presentation.
I can manually change these settings to select Flash player or Flash CS5 back as the default application for all .swf's, but as soon as I close the info window, the files immediately becomes "interactive presentation" files again, so Flash player insists in openning the fiels inside my presentation.
There's a permanent way to fix this?
I'm using a Mac Intel core duo 2.
EDIT: I temporarily solved the problem deleting all copies of my presentation's projector. The flash player atemmpted to use another presentation instead to open .swf files, so I deleted that one too. After that, now plays the .swf files as normal. The only problem is, if for any reason I do re-install any of my interactive presentations proyectors, Flash player immediately tries to use them to play the .swf's... so the problem really remains unsolved.

The web flash player does not play stand alone .swf files on your computer.

card and attach the SWF file (imbed it in the MS Word file (the
Birthday card) that I am trying to create. so the recepient can

Yes, I have an idea. The Media Manager video streaming is nowhere near ready for prime-time and should not have been released in its current buggy version.
I've had it through beta testing and it has NEVER consistently imported and subsequently played many of my videos, despite being in a supported format. I don't see any progress being made on this, but they released it anyways.

I've installed Flash Player, why can't I play a swf file?

I'm trying to play a swf file in Windows 7. I've been able to do this before many times, using Flash Player, but it doesn't work now. I've recently done a complete reinstall of Windows 7 and my apps, and this is the first time I've tried to play a swf file since then.
When I double-click a swf file, I get the "Windows can't open this file" dialog box. If I select "Use the web service..." it takes me to the Adobe website Flash Player installation page. (I've installed it previously, and I've installed it - twice - today.) If I select "Select a program from a list...", the list doesn't include Flash Player, though it does allow me to play the file in a browser.
Some of my swf files I created with Captivate, and published them with an html file. When I open the html file, the swf file plays properly. Shouldn't I be able to play the swf file in the player, without opening the html file?
Should I be able to see the player in my start menu programs, or in the Programs folder? I can't find it on my computer. Is there something else I need to install?

Is it possible to play a swf file over html, but still be able to click on the html site below?

I have a website built in html, with normal clickable content - a few buttons scattered around the centre.
An absolute positioned div sits on top of the site and plays a swf file which moves out of view and stops. I have set everything to transparent and the user can see the site below as it is revealed.
But once the swf file has moved off screen, none of the content is clickable (as I suppose the flash object is still there).
I've no idea if this is normal, or if there is a work around so that the user can reach the html content below after the anim has moved out of the way... ?

I'm sorry I wasn't very clear. When I just try to open the SWF file by double clicking it, it opens in FireFox and it is resized to fit the screen. When I open the html file that flash provides it looks great, it is the perfect dimensions. There is probably no way to make the swf file limit it's size when it is opened by itself, I just wanted to hear someone say it.

Can you play/view swf files on adobe air for android?

Hi, yes; I'm new here, as well as to Adobe Air, and I'm still trying to learn the ropes around here, and I apologize in advance if this has already been asked, or I have placed this question in the wrong forum.
The thing is, I was wondering if it was possible to play my SWF files via adobe air for android; and if so, how? Thanks in advance either way.

Can you please give directions where can i clear that cash.
Anyway i don`t think its the case, because this is first time i hooked phone to internet, and first time i launched Android app store.
Edit:
I went to https://market.android.com and there is Adobe air app. But when i try to download it says that my device doesn't support it (Samsung Galaxy GT-I5500) By default it comes with android 2.1 and doesn't support Adobe air, but i upgraded firmware to 2.2.
Maybe that is the reason it doesn't show me Adobe AIR in app store - based on my phone, not my Android version ?

Problem playing an swf file created in Bridge

Hello everyone
I have created an web gallery using Bridge and tried playing a swf file containing the slideshow with no luck. When I double-click the file, it open an Adobe Flash Player window but a spiral appears at the centre and just keeps turning. Because my intention is to upload the swf file to a website, I really need to get the file to play the slideshow.
Has anyone succeeded in making a standalone swf file using Bridge or any other Adobe product? If so, please let me know how to.
Thank you,
Pom

Henk,
I'm not on 3.0 so I can't help you out, but I would suggest re-posting on the Enterprise Administration portion, perhaps it'll get more notice there for a resolution.
Thanks,

"Instructor-led class" compulsary for OCP(O9i)

I am really interested in taking to become an OCP.(Oracle 9i) But I am a little upset that it is compulsary to take an "Instructor-led class" in order to get the OCP. However, if we start off with the OCP track before Sept 1st we don't have to take this class. (As I understand from http://www.oracle.com/education/certification/index.html?dba9i_ocp.html)
I wonder if it is enough if I pass "Oracle9i: SQL " or should I pass the first 3 exams (O9i SQL, O9i DBA Funda I & O9i Funda II) before sept 1st so that I can skip taking the "Instructor-led class". If any one has an answer to this please do reply.
Also, I would like to know if the follwoing books will be useful for exam preparation.
1.     OCA/OCP: Introduction to Oracle 9i SQL Study Guide OCP:Exam 1Z0-007 (ISBN:0-7821-4062-9)
2.     OCA/OCP: Oracle 9i DBA Fundamentals I Study Guide OCP:Exam 1Z0-031 (ISBN:0-7821-4063-7)
3.     OCA/OCP: Oracle 9i DBA Fundamentals II Study Guide OCP:Exam 1Z0-032 (ISBN:0-7821-4064-5)
4.     OCA/OCP: Oracle 9i Performance Tuning Study Guide OCP:Exam 1Z0-033 (ISBN:0-7821-4065-3)
Thanks in advance !

I am Oracle 8i OCP DBA. First I want to upgrade to OCP DBA 9i. Then simultaneously, I am interested for OCP Developer 6i.
As I am DBA, so I have my one paper SQL cleared for OCP Developer already. Will this suffice for Sep 1 deadline for waiver of regular classes for Oracle Certifications?
Please respond.

Instructor-led class for OCP

will my university bachelor's degree in IT(specialization: Database Technologies) count or substitute for the instructor-led class which is required for OCP.. It included 3 classes. (we used 10g as our platform and had several team & individual database projects for each classes)
Database Management Systems (4 credits)
Database Security, Auditing, and Disaster Recovery (4 credits) and
Data Warehousing and Mining (4 credits)
Also can you recommend OCP approved instructor-led class tranining here in Minnesota. Is the online format any good?
thanks

thanksYour options are:
(1) Worforce: https://workforce.oracle.com/pls/wdp/new_home.main .... but i don't think one is near you. Remeber I am in UK and have given up on US geography as it seems half those in Washington are o the west coast and the other half on the east coast in a different time zone. Quality can be a bit dodgy so not recommended.
(2) Otherwise you need to indentify your couse here:

Unless you are rich and can afford loads choose your course wisely .... some help with the exams ... others can expand your experience post exams. Some are cheaper than others.
I think i'd generally prefer classroom ..... ( I have never done LVC online). But distance can be an issue.
Anyways checkout: http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=317
And try to fight your way round the course schedules http://education.oracle.co.uk/html/oracle/28US/SCHED_MP.htm . Hopefully they taught you to fight your way arround such websites at university ... the information is there. If not give oracle university a ring ... Larry wants to acquire you and your money.

Differences between the 2 ways to play local swf files in flash player

There are 2 ways to allow the flash player to play local swf files:
Add the directory/file of the swf to the Global Flash Player Trust directory. http://help.adobe.com/en_US/ActionScript/3.0_ProgrammingAS3/WS5b3ccc516d4fbf351e63e3d118a9 b90204-7c95.html
Add the directory/file of the swf to the Trusted Location Settings in the Local Settings Manager.http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlayer/LSM/WS6aa5ec234ff3f285139dc56112e3786b68c-7ff0.htm l#WS6aa5ec234ff3f285139dc56112e3786b68c-7fea
Adobe doesn't mentioned in the document what's the differences between these 2 methods, and they look has the same effect. But when I'm doing it on OS X, Safari 6.1, the first method doesn't work (It was working when I was using Safari 6.0). And then I tried method 2, it works…
So I'd like to ask what are the differences between these 2 methods to play local swf files?

For playing local SWF files, Download the Macintosh Flash Player 11.9 Projector
It's a standalone app. Just copy it to your Applications folder. Launch it, and drag the SWF to the Dock icon. It'll play.

Slow playing back swf files

Hello,
I am running OSX 10.4 11 server and have an internal web site I am running. It's on a G4 Xserve with 4GB of RAM. Not that many people access the internal site so I don't think it's the load, but I guess you never know.
anyhow, I created this swf file about 400k and they are very slow opening and playing back.
any clues on what it may be or what I can check?
Thanks,

The way your doing it now can get really confusing over time.
save a reffrence in an object or an array that would indecate to you if it was loaded allready or not for example the full switch you have up there could of been this instead:
1. give your clips there URL so you don't need to ask for it again if your working with movielclips for your buttons or if you created a class for them just give it a public var such as 'actionURL'
so for example
btn1.actionURL = 'link1';
btn10.actionURL= 'link10';
now that everything knows what it loads all is left is for you to now follow after things
1. when the buton is clicked you can ask itself what is the url e.target.actionURL
2. you can then have a flag (boolean value such as isInTransition) that lets you know if there is an animation going on
2.1 there is no animation so lets load it up
2.2. ther is an animation so lets save the data and wait for the animation to complete before we start the load
and thats about it
if you want to save a reffrence to if the clip was loaded or not you can save your result in many ways one of them could be an object/array that holds everything that was loaded already
var oLoaded:Object= {};
onLoadNewItem(e:Event):void{
   if(!oLoaded[e.target.actionURL]){ i was never loaded before
       oLoaded[e.target.actionURL] = new Loader(....
   }else{
       oLoaded[e.target.actionURL] //here is my loader do with it what ever you want to do
hope this hit the nail on the head

Streaming interactive swf files using Adobe Media server

Hi!,
I have some swf files which are interactive. Is it possible to stream them using adobe media server via http or rtmp? Will the resulting stream be interactive? I have to play this streams on android devices. If not possible, is there any other way?
I'm using 5.0.3 version of Media server. Our Android devices are Jellybean and ICS.
Regards,
Randeep
